Poker Site Summary:

William Hill Poker is one of the biggest and oldest sportsbooks in the United Kingdom, providing gaming services offline since 1934.

Recently merging onto the iPoker network, its' traffic and promos at William Hill Poker are top of the line, with over $16 million in prize money per month guaranteed on the network!

Multi-currency deposits and playing is available, as are a wide range of different poker games and a great selection of sit-and-go tournaments.

Given its long history in the UK, William Hill Poker is a very popular poker room for many European and British players, making its busiest traffic time around European peak hours daily.

Big name pros that are sponsored by William Hill are also heavily favoured by the British, with Roland de Wolfe, Julian Thew and Keith "The Camel" Hawkins leading the list.

Due to the prominent sportsbook presence, the poker tables are filled with relatively wild and loose juicy games. Play in general is considered fairly loose and juicy, with loads of opportunities for easy games, particularly at the micro stakes levels.

The software has great functionality and the lobby had a well-deserved makeover in 2008, giving it a cleaner and more user-friendly appeal and making finding tournaments a lot easier.

Ring game traffic (8/10)

Since the switch to iPoker network, ring-game traffic at William Hill Poker is now leading the industry.

There are always many different games at low- and mid-stakes No-Limit and Limit Hold'em games -Â Â very weak players!Â Cash games at William Hill Poker can be a gold mine if you find the right table to play at.

Game Variety (8/10)

Games range between No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit, with full-table games, short-handed, and heads-up tables available.

All games can be played in the following currencies: USD, GBP or EUR denominations. The lowest US dollar No-Limit tables are 1Â¢/2Â¢ and the highest $100/$200.

In Limit the lowest US dollar tables are 2Â¢/4Â¢ up to $300/$600, and Pot-Limit Omaha offers the same as the No-Limit tables.

Software & Graphics (6/10)

The graphics are not the best in the industry, with some crude 3D graphics and avatars.Â There are ten different options that you can choose from.Â The animations and sounds are fine; however, with lots of customization options.Â Overall, graphics aren't its strongest feature but not a critical obstacle to enjoying the juicy action.

The table selection menu has a search function which quickly helps you find the type of game that you are looming for.

There is also a fullscreen mode that allows you to focus solely on your poker tables, which can be quite helpful to concentrate.

Another great software feature are the table statistics which give you detailed statistical information on how you have been playing historically and with clarity and depth that exceed the competition's similar features.

Rake (7/10)

General rake policy is the standard 5% in increments up to $3, but on several types of tables there are lower maximums.

On Fixed-Limit tables, up to $1/$2, there is a $1 maximum rake.Â All tables with at least 2 players also have a max. rake of $1 and tables with 3-4 players have a $2 maximum rake , including No-Limit and Pot-Limit short-handed games.

William Hill Poker also uses a "no flop, no drop" policy for hands not reaching the flop, which is nice.

Deposits & Withdrawals (10/10)

Soft Competition (8/10)

The game play at the majority of tables at William Hill Poker is pretty soft.

Most of the traffic is in the No-Limit Texas Hold'em games, and viewed-flop percentages tend to be in the 30s or 40s, which means that a lot of players are going to the flop with little more than a fat chance of hitting.Â This is a great reason for players who know even a little bit about HoldÃ¢â‚¬â„¢em and playing in position to play at William Hill.

Players can sometimes even find full tables with pre-flop percentages in the 50s, so it can be very easy for skilled players to clean up.

Loyalty Bonus (8/10)

William Hill Poker has a tiered VIP program with increasing benefits as you gain WH points.

You gain entries to freerolls, cash back, get access to the Loyalty Shop, and for the very top levels, you get live sponsorships and can play in $10k freerolls.
